In this episode…

One bad contract clause, one opaque tour settlement, one “quick” call that turns into free strategy and suddenly a music business dispute is in court. We sit down with David Ciemny, CEO of Ciemny Inc., to talk about what expert witness work looks like in the entertainment industry and why it demands more than general business knowledge. David shares how a high-profile case opened the door, how he partners with teams like Round Table Group, and what attorneys are really listening for when they interview an expert.

We also go deep on forensic tour accounting, common money pitfalls for artists, and why transparency in financial reporting can prevent disputes with management teams before they explode.
